Notes
I emailed griff@purdue.edu a few weeks ago, and then I sent a follow up a few days ago. Needed to tie up loose ends and make a decision. Figured it was a rejection, but wanted to be sure. Jill emailed me back yesterday will an informal rejection, saying formal email would be out soon. That's it for me! 3a/0w/9r Some final thoughts: Apply to a variety of programs. Take a chance on programs that are in weird places, younger, and/or up and coming. Don't go $50,000+ in the hole for this degree. Find some place that is either affordable or will at least partially fund you. Only apply where you would actually attend. And realize the subjectivity and inherent unfairness in this process. A lot of this comes down to luck. Don't be so hard on yourself. Life will take you where you're meant to go.
